The Odenton SILK Colony.

Mrs. L. +. Badly, of California. who is
now in Baltimore interesting the ladies
Of that city in the culture of silk and silk
worms, visited Odenton, in this county
on last Wednesday, and had an in
terview with Mr. Watts who owns the
land where the colony will be located. A
plat of the ground had been prepared by
Mr. Watts, from which each colonist may
select location. The only requirement is
sandy soil suited to the growth of Null
berry trees, on the leaves of which the
silk worms feed. The location is all that
could be desired. 1t is quite near the sta
ton, and is at the junction of two rail-
roads-the Baltimore and Potomac and
the Annapolis Baltimore and Washington
Roads. The terms upon which the lots
are secured is the payment of $3.50 to
the Woman's Silk Culture Association,
who furnish the investor with the ten
acre tract of land, the necessary silk
worms and about one hundred mulberry
trees for the sustenance of the worms.
Early in May the eggs hatch, the silk
worm arrives at maturity in a few days,
and begins to spin his ball of silk. When
he has finished spinning, and before his
conversion to chrysalis begins, he is
steamed and taken from his web, which
will be found to contain several hundred
pards of silk, salable at So per pound. 1t
will thus be seen that good number of
industrious worms will pay for the tract
of land in very short time--one year, it
is claimed.
This industry, which has, perhaps.
never received an experiment in this State,
has been introduced into other localities
by the association, and has furnished con-
genial and lucrative employment, to say
nothing of home, to many persons of
limited means. To further encourage
silk growing-which has received a stimu-
lus from Congress-the association also
furnishes grapevines, suited to the eli
mate, to those undertaking the culture of
silk and silk worms. The establishment
of permanent colony Of silk growers ia
the State seems to be almost assured, and
real estate near Odenton is said to have
risen correspondingly in price. When the
colony is put on a paying basis at Oden-
ton the association win extend its opera.
tions to otEner parts of the State, and sub
seQuently to other States The prevailing
notion that only certain climates are suit
ed 10 silk growing, is erroneous. it is
only necessary that the climate in spring
be adapted to the growth of the white,
black or japonica mulberry trees. The
temperature of the cocoonery can be east
" adjusted to the worms-ar tificially, If
required--and work in the cocOonery on
IL lasts about six weeks. The col0nists
may then devote their time 70 grapevines.

effected a Judgment within the station
itself, but a combined rush of the gar
rison ultimately ousted them. The
Snider ammunition had tailed, 60 per
cent, of the cartridges not going off,
and Mr.. Dean had armed his men with
percussion guns, but even the cartrId.
ges for them were exhausted, and ne
thing remained but loose powder and
balls, and some 20 rounds for the can
non. Then, as already said, the
Hnussas and Bangalas quilted the
station, and there was nothing for it
but to blow up the station, set it ON
fire, and leave ; this was done at IL
o'clock at night. Mr.. Dean, after the
death of Dubois, had a hard struggle
to escape. The Arabs discovered his
traces, and followed them up SD rn-
mildly thai he had to leave his clothes
behind and for 80 days the poor fell
low passed from place TO place, naked
aud walking with bare feet, so as not
10 reveal his footmarks. Fortunately,
the natives were very kind 10 him.
After this it is difficult 10 see how the
station can be restored, unless,
indeed, Mr.. Stanley makes friends
with Tippoo, and is able to come 10
an understanding about the Congo,
as well as about the Emin Pasha ex-
petition.
Nj. Jnnssens, who has been Govern
or of the Congo since Sir Francis De
Winton retired, is leaving this month,
and Lieutenant Volcke and Mr.
Parminter will succeed him as a sort
If governing Council. With regard 10
tie relief of Emin Pasha, the ore satis-
factory thing at present is that MIR.
Stanley is ready to start, and doubt
less with his plan of operation clear,
~ enough arranged. If Tippoo Tip
adhered TO his intention of six months
ago of proceeding to Zanzibar, he
will doubtless be there by this time,
and will be ready to meet Dir. Stanley
on his arrival. Dr. Junker il expect
ell in Egypt next month, and, il
considered advisable, no doubt a
meeting could lie arranged between
him and Mr.. Stanley. The latter has
been already overwhelmed with offers
Of companionShip from all quarters,
none OF them probably at all likely
TO he accepted.
, 1887-02-23

Cameron, Livingstone, Stanley, Thorn
son, Lieutenant Gleerup, and others,
was most Hospitality treated by Tip
poo and the other Arab traders, who
so long as their peculiar trade is not
interfered with, are perfect gentlemen.
With such powerful assistance, then,
the question Of Emin Pasha's relief
would be solved, whatever route
would be taken. Not even the Uganda
potentate need be feared, and therefore
ii is probable enough hat Mr.. Stanley
will take the Uganda route and
return by Masailand. In that cnse,
however, we should perhaps hear OF
another expedition, TO go by Nasal
land under the leadership Of Mr..
Joseph Thomson. The telegram, it
is true, states that Mr.. Stanley will
go by "Mogandh" and Nasal. "Io-
ganda" may he a misprint for Mo-
bangi CHE river), but from what Mr..
Stanley states it is doubtful if he
would contemplate risk ng that route,
and therefore Uganda is probably
meant.
Mr.. Stanley has certainly made
great sacrifices in returning to this
country to 60 on his errand of mercy.
Yesterday morning he received IA
cablcgram from his emtreprenew in
New York, Offering him S4O,0 600 To
return and complete his lecturing
tour, while from'the 1870 lectures he
was TO give in Australia he would
have cleared not much less. A mis-
sion for which lie has sacrificed so
much he will rake ii point of accom-
plishing.
We may be sure that the disasters
which have happened to the Congo
State would never have occurred had
Mr.. Stanley continued at his post.
Rapidly all foreign officials are being
got rid of, and the management of the
State is falling entirely into the hands
of Belgian officers, who seem i'll adapt
ed for such work A communication
has been received from the Congo
confirming in all particulars the nc
count already given 1T the deStruc-
ton Of Tie Stanl'y Falls Station. Mr..
Dean, in charge IF the station, had
had some palaver with the Arabs, and
had punished n party of these (Which
had oppressed the natives and taken
woman prisoner by burr ing their
village. Peace, however, had been
made; Mr.. Stanley had left on August
23rd and on he 24th the Arabs rr"i-
~torouSIy attacked the station. Ar,
Dean had som" 40 odd BungalaS and
a few Houssas, making a garrison of
so men, Lieutenant Dubois and Mr..
Dem were the only white men in the
place. Between the 24lh and 299h
the Arabs attacked the station four
times, fighting from early morning un-
Ill 4 p m, being rcpuls"d each day.
On The last occasion, however, they
